What Is Cloud Computing?

Cloud computing is a revolution in hosting and in IT infrastructure. Companies are switching over from physical infrastructure to cloud hosted environments in droves, so much so that by 2012, analysts expect cloud computing to capture 25% of all IT spending. And it is easy to see why, as cloud hosting offers:

• Massive reductions in infrastructure costs
• Instant flexibility to scale IT resources
• Faster time-to-market for new applications
• Full server hardware redundancy
• Compatibility with existing application code
• Enterprise quality data center
• Scalability, security, redundancy, reliability, virtualization, rapid deployment, high availability
• Two redundant power feeds
• Redundant Uninteruptable Power Supply
• Diesel powered generator with separate fuel tank
• Fire Suppression
• Badged access for physical security
• Round the clock video surveillance
• Dual Fiber Based Bandwidth for Redundancy
• Expertise in both Voice and Data
• Best of breed components such as: Cisco, Checkpoint, Juniper, SuperMicro, Panduit, EMC, and many others
• 99.99% Guaranteed Uptime
• 24x7x365 technical server support
• Web-based, self-service ticketing
• Phone support with a professional technician or engineer
• Network-based security protection
• Bandwidth monitoring and tracking
• Customer access to knowledge base

The Power of Microtech-Tel

Our cloud computing platform is powered by the latest Intel processor techology. Our Storage Area Networks are all SAS high speed drives, suitable for cloud computing and remote applications. The Dell R610 Servers are the latest in a long line of Dedicated and Virtual Servers. By using the latest technology, it allows us to build a highly redundant, scalable environment. It allows us to design and build complex distributed hosting infrastructures that would once have taken weeks, in just a matter of hours. Environments with multiple load balanced web servers, replicated database servers, firewalls and more, can all be tested, monitored and perfected at a fraction of the cost of doing so with physical hardware.

“Cloud Computing is exciting technology that holds the promise of providing more effective, efficient, and elastic computing platforms.”
